The Clarinet BBoard

Re: Excessive Slack in LH C/F Key (YCL 72)

Author: LJBraaten  Date:   2014-04-18 23:15 I am pleased to report that the problem has been corrected, kudos to Gordon for posting the helpful repair tip. I asked one of the repair techs I know to look at Gordon's post. He said he liked that fix better than his own suggestion (install an adjustment screw), and he would be glad to do it. The only variation is that since he has silver plating equipment he soldered in a piece of brass (instead of silver sheeting) then plated it. I have looked hard and cannot detect the repair. But more importantly, the lever now works like it should, there is no excessive slack, and I don't have trouble with fast passages (at least none that I can blame on the keywork ). The repair guy liked it so well that he is going to the same thing on his Bundy Bass clarinet. Again, a big thanks to Gordon! Laurie (Mr. Laurie J Braaten) Post Edited (2014-04-18 23:16)
